In April this year we found cache GC13Y2Y 'Lego - einer ist zuviel' in Berlin and were amazed that it had nearly 7000 favourite points at that time. Today it has nearly 7400, achieved over 9 years since June 2007. To log it you have to find the one extra lego brick in a 20 foot high yellow lego giraffe sculpture! Amazing fun, and trying to look with no muggles is almost impossible! It would be interesting to know which other caches out there have amazing favourite point scores as well and what other cachers can say or recommend about them.

Geocaching Headquarters has the most favorite points (GCK25B), but a cache I did in Texas was so much more fun - Necropolis of Britannia Manor III (GC2B034). This cache was a blast and the CO put a lot of work into it.

For me this was this cache from Wien, which is a bit strange because, in my opinion, this is not the best cache I found there. I think this one (https://coord.info/GC5PWWQ) was much better wink

Some time ago I found GC13Y2Y 'Lego - einer ist zuviel' in Berlin... really tricky one... i was lucky, finding the brick which not belongs there within 15 minutes :-) - at the beginning i wanted to give up, but then ... I got it :-)

I love this cache!

The cache with most favourites i found is located in Hamburg. 

GC18182Voss-MargarineMulti-cacheGermany Hamburg4684 (82%)

 

It is a small multi-cache, where you first have to count some signs and then you have to find a unique tool (self-made by the owner). With that tool you have to reach for the cache and to get it from its hiding place. Very cool built container that fits perfectly in its surroundings. You have almost no chance to do all this without muggles around.
I believe it is the cache with the most favourites in Hamburg. And the owner has built some more of very cool caches.

Wow, 4.7K PF and counting, that's really impressive!
BTW how did you format your answer? It looks really neat.
I just copied the text out of my statistics and it took all the formats with it.. ;-)
Thanks, I'll try that!

I have four finds with more than 1000 Favs but clearly on top of the list is GC2EJCE, Liebesbrücke. It is located on a very impressive steel railway bridge across the Rhine in Cologne. As I am writing this it has 3192 favourite points. However there are a lot more to mention so as my number five, GC46R5W Bonus # Ali Baba und die 40 Räuber in northwest Bavaria...

In Germany it is very easy to find caches with many points. But there is no cache with more favs than Lego in Berlin

For now is my found with most favorites St. Sylvester (GC24FW6) in Germany. There is 1360 FAV points. Next one is Cache my Czech (Prague) (GCF496) in Czech Republic with 1252. But for me was really great (now archived) cache Strateny symbol (Lost Symbol) (GC2K2YD). This cache gets 219 FAV points during 3 years of its existence.

We found a few on a recent holiday there was an earth cache in the vatican and at the colleseum which have a huge number of favourite points but we have found ou best ones in portugal. The best two are below. Their FP's dont always represent good they are as everyone has a different view. These two were rad though

https://coord.info/GC696RX - A customer made Metal cache which requires some out of the box thinking to get the log book out.

https://coord.info/GC3RHPK - This cache requires a wade into a water feature was great fun

There are hundreds more that are great caches

Technically, the most favourited cache I have logged is Geocaching HQ. However, I will not count it here since I haven't actually visited the inside of the HQ, just signed the log book. It was available for signing at the Block Party I attended in 2015. Here are the three that comes next.

GC31EQD   Töff Töff für das Kind im Manne (und Frau :-) )   Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany   3901 FP

Fantasic cache, unfortunately it was not working properly when I was there and a little while later it was archived.

Another one, still active, is probably on many statistic hunters lists. It is the second oldest cache in Europe.

GC40   Geocache   Namur, Belgium   3587 FP

Then of course, there is this one, a real classic.

GCGV0P   Original Stash Tribute Plaque   Oregon, USA   3325 FP

When I got there, another cacher was just leaving. He had driven across the country from New York...
